Acts 17:6-9

Living Bible

⁶ Not finding them there, they dragged out Jason and some of the other believers, and took them before the Council instead. “Paul and Silas have turned the rest of the world upside down, and now they are here disturbing our city,” they shouted, ⁷ “and Jason has let them into his home. They are all guilty of treason, for they claim another king, Jesus, instead of Caesar.”

^8-9 The people of the city, as well as the judges, were concerned at these reports and let them go only after they had posted bail.
